통합교육의 관점으로 본 예술고등학교 무용교육과정 분석

Abstract

Seoul Arts High School was established in 1953, in order to train professional artists. Today, there are 26 arts high schools in Korea. The ultimate purpose of the establishment of arts school is to train potential professional artists. However, the current operation of the curriculum in arts high schools reveals that it is designed for university entrance exam-oriented education. This study aims to analyze the curriculum in 6 arts schools in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, where Korean dance, modern dance, and ballet majors are offered, and to study ideal curriculum for arts high school, to foster artists who can integrate thinking and creativity. The following issues were identified in terms of the operations of the integrated curriculum for enhancing creativity. First, the operation of the integrated curriculum was insufficient in conjunction with regular course and professional course(dance-major course). Second, the operation of the curriculum for enhancing creativity was insufficient in conjunction with theory courses and practical courses among dance-major curriculum. Third, the operation of the curriculum related with creativity to develop movement was insufficient because arts schools operate university entrance exam-oriented curriculum. The future directions for improving the above-mentioned issues and for improving creativity through integrated curriculum are as follows. First, it is necessary to pursue integrated curriculum of regular courses such as history, literature, and society, and to pursue creative curriculum in order to improve creativity. Second, it is necessary to pursue integrated curriculum with other arts curriculum such as art, music, and acting, considering dance is an embodied art. Third, it is necessary to operate integrated curriculum to encourage and develop creative movement. Fourth, arts high schools operate a three-year curriculum in total. Therefore, it is necessary to operate integrated curriculum progressively in order to improve creativity.
